A field investigation was carried out at east farm of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru College of Agriculture and Research Institute, Karaikal during winter (Navarai), 2017. Two rice varieties viz., V1 - ADT 46 and V2 - KMP 175 were evaluated under two irrigation methods viz., I1 - Surface irrigation as flooding and I2 - Drip irrigation at 1.2 CP Eeach with six foliar spray treatments on 55 and 75 DAS viz., F1 – Water spray, F2 – Silica @ 500 ppm, F3 – KCl @ 10000 ppm, F4 – Boric acid @ 0.4 ppm, F5 – Triacontanol @ 2 ppm, F6 – Brassinosteroids @ 1 ppm along with F0 - control. The aerobic rice experiment was laid in Split split plot design. Surface irrigation as flooding (I1) and the variety KMP 175 (V2) have proved superior by registering taller plants when compared to their respective other treatments. However, the number of tillers produced per hill and LAI of the variety ADT 46 were significantly higher when compared to KMP 175 and surface irrigation again had favoured significantly higher number of tillers and LAI. At the same time, the response of ADT 46 in producing higher number of tillers and LAI was significantly higher under surface irrigation method while the response of the variety KMP 175 under both the irrigation methods was similar. Averaged across irrigation methods and foliar treatments, the variety KMP 175 had significantly and consistently registered higher DMP. Similarly, averaged across varieties and irrigation methods, application of brassinosteroids had consistently registered significantly higher DMP at all the growth stages of rice.Among the two varieties tested, KMP 175 had significantly registered lengthier ischolar_mains than ADT 46. On the other hand, the ischolar_main volume and ischolar_main DMP of the variety ADT 46 was significantly higher than the variety KMP 175. Similarly, foliar spraying of KCl, water spray and Brassinosteroids had significantly registered statistically at par and higher ischolar_main volume than the other foliar treatments.Therefore, it could be concluded from the experiment that surface irrigation had favoured most of the growth parameters of aerobic rice. The growth performance of the variety KMP 175 under aerobic soil was significantly higher in terms of plant height, DMP and ischolar_main length whereas ADT 46 had produced more number of tillers, LAI and ischolar_main volume. Among the foliar treatments, brassinosteriods had registered higher DMP and ischolar_main volume.Keywords

A field investigation was carried out at east farm of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru College of Agriculture and Research Institute, Karaikal during winter (Navarai), 2017. Two rice varieties viz., V1 - ADT 46 and V2 - KMP 175 were evaluated under two irrigation methods viz., I1 - Surface irrigation as flooding and I2 - Drip irrigation at 1.2 CPE each with six foliar spray treatments on 55 and 75 DAS viz., F1 – Water spray, F2 – Silica @ 500 ppm, F3 – KCl @ 10000 ppm, F4 – Boric acid @ 0.4 ppm, F5 – Triacontanol @ 2 ppm, F6 – Brassinosteroids @ 1 ppm along with F0 - control. The aerobic rice experiment was laid in Split split plot design. The variety KMP 175 had significantly out-yielded ADT 46 and produced the highest grain and straw yields. Similarly, Brassinosteroids and KCl treated plots had recorded statistically at par and higher grain and straw yields. On the other hand, the surface irrigation and drip irrigation had produced statistically similar grain yield. The harvest index of aerobic rice was averaged at 0.23 which was considerably low when compared to the other irrigated rice growing environments. The total water use by aerobic rice under drip irrigation method was almost 35 per cent lesser than surface irrigation but its use efficiency was almost 21 per cent higher than surface irrigation. Similarly, the variety KMP 175 under both irrigation methods registered 70 per cent higher water use efficiency than ADT 46. The highest gross income, net income and B:C ratio could be achieved if KMP 175 was chosen to grow under surface irrigation along with Brassinosteroids foliar spray. Hence, it is concluded from the experiment that the variety KMP 175 could be chosen to grow as aerobic in the coastal deltaic region of Karaikal coupled with either Brassinosteroids or KCl foliar spray under either surface irrigation if water is not a constraint or with drip irrigation if water is a constraint to achieve higher grain yield and net profit.Keywords
